What can cause your dogs equilibrium to be off?

The dog's equilibrium - his ability to know which way is up and stay standing squarely on all four feet - is determined by the interaction of the semi-circular canals in the ear and the nerve impulses to the brain. A common cause of dysequilibrium (inability to stay standing upright and stable) is an inner ear infection, which would need to be drained and treated by a veterinarian. Other causes can include infections around the brain (called meningitis), cancer of the inner ear or brain (rare, but possible), inflammation of the nerves (again, rare) or congenital problems (you'd see this at birth).
